Produktbeschreibung

In fast allen Bereichen der Wissenschaft der Moleküle - von der organischen über die anorganische, medizinische, physikalische und biologische bis zur analytischen Chemie - spielen moderne Rechenmethoden eine immer wichtigere Rolle. An Einsteiger und erfahrene Fachleute gleichermaßen wendet sich diese erfolgreiche und praxiserprobte Reihe, die Algorithmen aus der Quantenchemie, der Molekülmechanik und -dynamik sowie der QSAR erfasst. Die Methoden werden mit theoretischem Hintergrund, Hinweisen zur richtigen Anwendung, Warnungen vor häufigen Fehlern und einer umfangreichen Bibliographie besprochen.
